My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Adoption Fee: $150.00

Melanie's angels:  Margaret Lewis
SCMR thanks you and Melanie thanks you!!

 

Melanie Zooms!
 
Melanie is a wonder to watch her scoot around. Her rear legs are paralyzed but she doesn't know she has a disability! She wants to go across the room, she just takes off at warp speed! Zoom! She's there. And she likes to hop up and down like a bunny. She's only 5.5 pounds and 4 years old. And she's happy all the time. Over a year ago Melanie had some kind of accident...we don't know the story...but did not receive the medical care she needed. Now an animal physical therapist has evaluated her and says it's been too long and she will never have any mobility in her back legs, but Melanie is getting a custom wheel chair so she will still be able to zoom all over! She has been fully vetted, has all her teeth and is just full of kisses for everybody! Melly loves all dogs and people. She will need a loving home where her special needs will not be a problem since she has to wear diapers. There are great rewards in loving and caring for a special needs dog like Melanie.  If you can't adopt, please consider becoming one of Melanie's angels by sending a donation for her care.
 
She's zooming around Chattanooga till you catch up with her!
